Title: Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon
Post by: Zelda Veteran on February 22, 2009, 11:59:53 AM
In case nobody has heard yet, Nintendo remade the first game in the series of Fire Emblem, and while its already released in Japan, it has yet to hit America. The game involves prince marth, and his conquests. The game is for the Gameboy BS*ehemhem* DS(my apologies), and there's already videos of it around the net. Some of you might already know it, but there isn't a topic about it here, and I only heard about it a few days ago. I WANNA PLAY IT SO BAD :( :(

I've never played Fire Emblem.  Isn't it all in Japanese?  What's so good about it?

The last few games haven been released in America as well, so no Japanese knowledge was required. The first...five or six, I believe, were Japan only.

Check it out at IGN, Shika, you can get all your information.
One of the purposes of it, Shika, is to give all the new player of Fire Emblem a chance to play the first game in the series. I think its a nice idea.

Yep, I heard about it. Didn't know it was out in Japan, though, so cool. ;)

They should've included part 2 of the Marth story, as displayed in the Super Famicom game, Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem. Only in that way would it be complete.

That SFC game has both the original Fire Emblem in a graphical update and a second book of new adventures. It's also been translated fully by a certain group that I can't recall.
